摘要:
The information such as address is to be efficiently formed into wobble components and further the S/N ratio in reproducing the information formed into the wobble components is to be improved. In an optical disc of the present invention, there are recorded in a wobble the address information modulated in accordance with the MSK (minimum shift keying) system and the address information modulated in accordance with a modulation system in which even harmonics signals are added to a sinusoidal carrier signal and in which the polarity of the harmonics signal is changed depending on the sign of the data for modulation.
摘要:
An optical recording medium with recording layers laminated is provided. The optical recording medium includes at least a first recording layer where first data is recorded and a second recording layer where second data associated with the first data is recorded. The first and second recording layers are laid one over another, and the second data is recorded at a location on the second recording layer, the location being in the neighborhood of the location on the first recording layer where the first data associated with the second data is recorded. Signals can be reproduced in various forms by properly combining data read from the recording layers.
摘要:
A device for recording and/or reproduction of optical disks having a laminate of a plurality of recording layers comprises an optical pickup capable of emitting a light beam to any of the recording layers and including a photodetector for receiving the reflection from the recording layer; and a comparator that compares a peak level of the output signal from the photodetector with a predetermined reference value and, in accordance with the result of comparison, determines that recording layer of the optical disk on which the light beam from the optical pickup is focused.
摘要:
An optical disc recording/reproducing apparatus for recording and reproducing data using an optical disc as the recording medium, wherein use is made of an optical disc (1) having pit regions (2a) with servo pits and data regions (2a) on which data will be written, that are alternately provided along the circumferential direction, reference clocks are formed in synchronism with said servo pits, and a laser diode (21) is driven by pulses in synchronism with the reference clocks to write or erase the data, thus enabling the life of the laser diode to be lengthened and the disc capacity to be effectively utilized.
摘要:
An apparatus comprising an optical pickup for reproducing information stored on optical recording media, which automatically set conditions for reproduction of individual recording media loaded into a drive so as to obtain compatibility with different types of media. Even when an optical recording medium for low-density recording is loaded, the recorded information can be reliably reproduced.
摘要:
An optical disk comprises a substrate, on one side of which a first recording layer and a second recording layer of different reflectivities are formed one on another, and a protective coating is provided on the first or second recording layer, which is farther from the substrate. For reproduction, a light beam is emitted from a single light source to the first or second recording layer through a single object lens. Based on whether the light beam is reflected from the first or second recording layer, the object lens is moved along its optical axis and focused on the recording layer to reproduce information.
